修订后的 10 项妊娠相关焦虑问卷 (PRAQ-R) 是一种广泛使用的工具，用于评估和识别未产妇妊娠特异性焦虑。它具有良好的心理测量价值以及对出生和儿童结局的预测有效性。尽管如此，PRAQ-R 并非设计用于已产女性，因为调查问卷中的一项特别与之前生育过的女性无关。我们测试了修改后的 PRAQ-R2 在未产妇和已产妇女中的阶乘和标量不变性，并使用适合两组孕妇的调整项目。对 1144 名孕妇（n = 608 名未产妇和 n = 536 名已产妇）进行的一项纵向研究使用 PRAQ-R2 的两次重复测量来测试仪器的测量不变性。结果显示了度量和标量不变性，表明 PRAQ-R2 在怀孕期间的两个不同时间以相同的尺度测量所有孕妇的相似结构。我们得出的结论是，PRAQ-R2 可以在未产妇和已产女性样本中使用、比较或组合。
The 10-item Pregnancy-Related Anxiety Questionnaire-Revised (PRAQ-R) is a widely used instrument to assess and identify pregnancy-specific anxiety in nulliparous women. It has good psychometric values and predictive validity for birth and childhood outcomes. Nonetheless, the PRAQ-R is not designed for use in parous women, as particularly one item of the questionnaire is not relevant for women who gave birth before. We tested the factorial and scalar invariance of a modified PRAQ-R2 across nulliparous and parous women with an adapted item to fit both groups of pregnant women. A longitudinal study among 1144 pregnant women (n = 608 nulliparous and n = 536 parous) with two repeated measures of the PRAQ-R2 was used to test for measurement invariance of the instrument. Results show metric and scalar invariance, indicating that the PRAQ-R2 measures similar constructs on the same scale for all pregnant women at two different times during pregnancy. We conclude that the PRAQ-R2 can be used, compared, or combined in a sample of nulliparous and parous women.
